Sunrays2

 

Ok, there is a name for this phenomenon.

The sun is setting behind you,

and looking east, there are rays of sun and shadow –

created by what?

 

 

 

St. Augustine Beach, this was opposite the previous photo. Rays in the west and east.

    Crepuscular rays in atmospheric optics, are rays of sunlight that appear to radiate from the point in the sky where the sun is located. These rays, which stream through gaps in clouds (particularly stratocumulus) or between other objects, are columns of sunlit air separated by darker cloud-shadowed regions. Despite seeming to converge at a point, the rays are in fact near-parallel shafts of sunlight, and their apparent convergence is a perspective effect (similar, for example, to the way that parallel railway lines seem to converge at a point in the distance).
